Deck Comments / Re: EDH Elenda, the Dusk Rose - Comments
« on: January 28, 2019, 07:40:27 am »
This update reflects new cuts/inclusions geared towards making the token aspect of the deck and small Creatures more useful when sacrificing them isn't an option or for the better. It also cuts a few experimental cards in favor of some proven options.
-Avatar of Woe, Carnival of Souls, Magister of Worth and Thrilling Encore were more cute cards than anything, but often sat in my hand because of consistently having better options to play, or being too situational.
-Altar of Dementia was replaced by Yahenni as both a threat, as a direct upgrade to what the deck wants by being a Creature-based sac outlet. Similarly, Plaguecrafter replaced Merciless Executioner as a direct upgrade that can hit Planeswalkers and opponent's hands when they have no other Creatures. Hidden Stockpile replaced the seldom used Together Forever.
-Divine Reckoning has great synergy with Elenda, but with the amount of removal in the deck, it became Merciless Eviction in order to exile Planeswalkers and pesky Artifacts and Enchantments in decks popping up that make them hard to kill or like to bring them back from the graveyard.
-Elesh Norn, Living Death, Gray Merchant and Reveillark (as a combo piece) were all included as ways to close the game and buffer the ability to survive becoming the archenemy in the late game. Angelic Renewal was also added as a combo piece with Sun Titan and a sac outlet, as well as yet another way to get Elenda back from the graveyard.
